Before telling how to drawCipollino, let's reveal a few "secrets".

It turns out that anything can be depicted with a few simple geometric shapes - circles, squares, rectangles and triangles. A house, for example, is a few rectangles and a triangle. This makes it much easier for artists to draw complex subjects.

It's very easy to portray Cipollino! You need to draw an ordinary bulb with eyes, mouth and nose. And then draw the body.

Drawing

At the bottom, the rectangle diverges into two parts with the letter "L". Got legs in trousers. Now we draw the feet. We use small ovals for this. One looks "to the right" and the other looks to the left.

You can draw hands behind your back or one in your pocket.

Let's depict our Cipollino on the face with circles of eyes, eyebrows and mouth with arcs, a nose with a small oval. The eyes can be drawn as large ovals. This will make him look more like a cartoon.

The hairstyle is very simple - onion arrows.

Now add the details. Any. Anything your fantasy tells you. Cipollino is a boy from a poor family. We draw a patch on the trousers. Come up with a pattern on the shirt.

Now take colored pencils andbeautifully color our drawing.
